BS EN 1344 J8023_MARS_264-279 13/2/04 1:14 pm Page 266 267 All Marshalls facing bricks are classified as Fcategory fully frost resistant as defined in BS:3921:1985.Within the standard the definition states that frost resistant (F) bricks are durable in all building situations including those where they are in a saturated condition and subjected to repeated freezing and thawing. An important consideration in conditions of extended saturation is the possible failure of mortar joints through a process known as sulphate attack.Sulphate attack within mortar joints can lead to expansion, crumbling and failure of the joints leading to displacement in the surrounding brickwork. Marshalls facing bricks are also classified as Lcategory low soluble salts content as defined in BS:3921:1985.Experience shows that the use of Lowsoluble salts content clay bricks,as defined in BS:3921:1985, removes the risk of sulphate attack of the mortar.The Fcategory when combined with the Lcategory,gives a facing brick product with the highest durability designation available within BS:3921:1985,that of an FLdesignation,Fully Frost resistant with Low Soluble salts content. Marshalls further guarantees the frost resistance of its range of facing bricks for a minimum of 60 years.This guarantee only applies to Marshalls facing and engineering bricks supplied as Fquality.This is on the understanding that the brickwork in which the bricks are incorporated is designed and constructed exactly to the recommendations of BS:5628:Part 3:2001,the Code of Practice for Walling,or any later document which supersedes or replaces that code. DURABILITY GUARANTEE DIMENSIONAL ACCURACY GUARANTEE Marshalls realises that the dimensional deviation tests,both in BS:3921:1985 and the proposed European Standard prEN 771,do not provide a size test that meets the actual requirements of designers and contractors,that is,a measurement of the face,the dimension upon which all brickwork is based. In recognition of this requirement,Marshalls offers on the majority of the range,a dimensional guarantee above that of the existing and proposed standards which is related to individual bricks. This gives much greater accuracy on the critical face dimension,a significant improvement on the industry standards and one which can only add to the overall quality of the finished brickwork. Marshalls guarantees that a minimum of 90% of all facing bricks will have a face dimension of no more than + or 3mm from 215mm when measured 10mm back,from the face of the brick using callipers as illustrated.This guarantee is based on a measurement of individual bricks,not the mean of 24 bricks,as in the present standard,or the mean of 10 bricks,as in the proposed European Standard. Marshalls procedure for measuring the face dimension COLOUR BLENDING GUARANTEE Marshalls recognises that blending bricks from several packs prior to laying is not always possible for a variety of reasons. To ensure that an even blend and a balanced appearance of colours is achieved with the finished brickwork in these circumstances,Marshalls offers the Colour Blending Guarantee for certain products. Individual packs of facing bricks offering this guarantee have a balanced blend within each blade or slice,provided that the facing bricks are removed from packs as shown opposite. Marshalls also guarantees a balanced blend throughout the contract, reducing the need for hand blending on site,providing that the full quantity is ordered prior to supply commencing. All Marshalls facing bricks are supplied fully shrink wrapped to offer maximum protection in transit and on site.

Marshalls can supply precast panels faced with any brick from its extensive range. Bricks are cut to specified dimensions in Marshalls hi-tech cutting factory to ensure that the standard perforation pattern forms a dovetail which when backfilled with concrete,forms an exceptionally tight key. Various size panels can be created to suit the building design and colour consistency is excellent. Supply chain flow is also enhanced by factory controlled production allowing just in timedeliveries.
